Man rescued from third-story condo fire
Firefighters use ladder to reach stranded man
A man hanging out of a third-story condo and yelling for help was rescued after his apartment caught fire Monday morning.
Firefighters were dispatched to the Spyglass Hill Condominiums in the 4200 block of Medical Drive at around 8 a.m.
Firefighters say the man had been sleeping when he woke to smoke and fire in the kitchen and realized he was trapped inside.
"He couldn't make it out because the kitchen fire was blocking the exit way through the living area so he went to his window and hung out and started yelling for help," said SAFD Battalion Chief Ron Rodriguez.
"The guy was hanging out of the window but he was disoriented and he couldn't get out," said Steve Sanchez, the property manager. "He was yelling for help and another guy over here ran over with a ladder but it wasn't long enough so he was trying to get out of there. He was panicked."
Firefighters used a ladder to pull the man to safety. He was transported to University Hospital.
"He was able to walk, he was conscious, (and) they walked him to the ambulance," said Rodriguez.
Firefighters were quick to arrive at the scene and contained the fire to a single unit.
Damage is estimated at $50,000.
Firefighters were trying to determine if the fire was electrical or started by food left on the stove. The cause is under investigation.

Student Life: Accepted Students
Financial Aid
International Students
SIT Employment for International Students
SIT Work Opportunity. The SIT Work Opportunity program supports the part-time employment of international students who need the income to help pay for the cost of their education. A variety of campus employment opportunities are available each year. Most on-campus student employment opportunities are funded through this program, and only students who qualify for financial aid can participate. The rate of pay complies with the minimum wage law in the State of Vermont.
Campus Resident Advisors. Students can also earn the equivalent of room and board fees by working to create a cohesive learning community as a Resident Advisor in SIT's multicultural dormitories. Students do not need to qualify for financial aid to be eligible for these positions. Applications are only made available to students upon admission to an SIT graduate program through acceptance notification materials. The Housing Office begins making position appointments in April, and selection is based on demonstrated skills and experience.

- Willamette
- Administrative Departments
- Office of Financial Aid
Willamette University recognizes that cost may be a concern as you plan to invest in your educational goals. Addressing how you can finance a quality education may at first seem overwhelming. Taken one step at a time, however, the process does not need to be mysterious or confusing. The staff of the Office of Financial Aid is committed to making the process as simple as possible. We are available to assist you with any questions you may have, help you understand the financial aid programs available, and guide you through the application process.
As the primary beneficiary of the investment in your college education, we believe that you and your family are ultimately responsible for financing your education. Understandably, many families cannot afford the entire cost of college.
Financial aid, therefore, is available to help fill the gap between what you and your family are expected to provide and what it will cost to attend Willamette University. We believe that our generous merit and need based scholarship programs, combined with student loans and part time employment, can make a Willamette University education affordable.
Graduate Financial Aid Programs
Financial aid awards for returning students who met all deadlines will be available by the end of May.

East & West by Sebastian Murra
- Two-piece design adds a higher level of protection
- Enhanced bumper with metal buttons for finishing detail and a luxurious touch
- Interior finished liner provides a subtle cushion & elegant feel
Read All Reviews | write a review
Design with Flair
Sebastian Murra's East-West design still gives me pleasure and I've had the case for more than a year. The beautiful colors also repeatedly catch people's eyes and they enjoy the design as well. It is very durable and the colors have remained bright and clear. The only drawback is that it is very difficult to remove it from the phone, preventing from using a stand-up charger.
-V Mehl
I love the style of the case. My only down part was that the front piece is black. I have a white phone and the back of the case has a white base so the black lining kind of looks funny!
Very Pleased
I love the unique design of the Iphone5 East meets West case. The colors are beautifully sharp and unique, not the usual case cover design. It also appears to be quite durable as the cover is a hard plastic. Very pleased with my purchase.

The design on the shell is very pretty but it is ruined by the black rubber insert. The black rubber doesn't look good on my white phone. The shell should fit around on all 4 sides. The bottom is open except for the black rubber and I just do not like it. For the money it could have been better made
I love it!
Its just the perfect case for my white Iphone!

This is a great, lightweight, well cushioned iPhone cover with unique style. Maintains slim feel to the phone. (I purchased the tough case.) Colors shown are true to life. Only downside is that the plastic does scratch. No reason not to purchase this beautifully designed artisan piece. Keep up the good work, Sebastian!

Brazil spy allegations pose yet another hurdle for Canadian firms operating in Latin America
OTTAWA — Canada's alleged spying on Brazil's mines and energy ministry could prove the latest political and economic headache for Canadian extractive companies already encountering problems operating in Latin America.
Federal government documents obtained by Postmedia News under access to information laws show Canadian companies — trying to improve a bruised reputation — face increasing political uncertainty and challenges earning "social licence" in Latin American countries such as Brazil, Chile and Mexico, even before the latest spying allegations.
The Canadian government is being accused at home and abroad of industrial espionage, following allegations the super-secret Communications Security Establishment Canada targeted the metadata of emails and phone calls to and from the Brazilian ministry of mines and energy.
Questions are also mounting about what specific information Canadian security agencies and federal officials have been sharing with Canadian energy companies during secret meetings.
The spying allegations are on top of problems that Natural Resources Canada says are facing Canadian extractive companies operating across Latin America.
"Political uncertainty in a number of Latin American and Caribbean countries is placing Canadian mining companies and their operations at risk," say briefing notes prepared in 2012 for Natural Resources Minister Joe Oliver, and just recently released to Postmedia News under access to information.
"The ability of Canadian companies to earn a social licence to operate in the region is becoming increasingly difficult. In some jurisdictions, actions undertaken by companies as good corporate social responsibility practices are being refused and characterized as 'buying communities.' "
In some countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, there has been a "fundamental shift by governments" away from welcoming foreign investors to develop their natural resources, explains the briefing material to the minister.
A growing number of countries are increasing royalty and tax rates and imposing public-private joint ventures, say the notes. As well, some companies have had projects nationalized and assets expropriated, while legislative and constitutional amendments have made projects unviable in other cases.
The briefing notes also explain Canadian companies are increasingly being called on to contribute more to local economic and social development, and infrastructure projects.
"Companies must act and react on a case-by-case basis and engage at the earliest possible opportunity with communities."
More than 50 Canadian mining companies are active in Brazil alone, including Kinross Gold, Yamana Gold, Aura Minerals and Eldorado Gold.
Canadian extractive companies operating In Latin America and other areas have been in the spotlight for many of the wrong reasons over the past few years.
In May, the Chilean government fined Barrick Gold $16.4 million for breaching its environmental requirements and ordered the suspension of the $8.5-billion open-pit Pascua-Lama project located on the border of Chile and Argentina.
Several other Canadian mining companies have been targets of protests across Latin America and around the world over the past few years.
Natural Resources Canada data from earlier this year show Canadian mining assets abroad reached $146 billion in 2011 (latest data available), a 16 per cent increase over the previous year.
The top international region for Canadian mining investment is Latin America, with Mexico leading the way at $20 billion (about 13 per cent of total mining assets abroad) followed by Chile at $19 billion, according to the government data.
Argentina (eight per cent of total Canadian mining assets abroad) and Brazil (three per cent) were also included in the top 10 countries.
Mining Association of Canada president Pierre Gratton was travelling overseas and unavailable for comment on Thursday.
However, in a recent speech he highlighted the challenges facing the mining sector overseas, including earning social licence.
"In some countries, mining growth has engendered resource nationalism leading to uncompetitive royalty regimes and, in some cases, outright expropriation and nationalization of assets," Gratton said.
"Elsewhere, we have seen major protests of new developments, some with tragic consequences. These actions have harmed the investment attractiveness of these countries, but can also cast a shadow on our sector."
Carlo Dade, director of the Centre for Trade and Investment Policy at the Canada West Foundation, a Calgary-based think-tank, believes the spying allegations won't do too much damage because Canadian companies are viewed favourably compared to some from countries like China.
The broader problem for Canadian companies operating in Brazil and other Latin American countries might be the greater global focus on the mining industry and its environmental impacts.
"Mining is getting a lot more scrutiny. . . once scrutiny comes, you find a lot," Dade said. "You can't hide a mine."

ELVIS PRESLEY FROM ELVIS IN MEMPHIS AND BACK IN MEMPHIS (2-CD Legacy Edition)
[IMGL]http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:1AVbqcj2HPdarM:http://www.feature.legacyrecordings.com/images/news/elvis-presley/From-Elvis-In-Memphis-LE-640x589.jpg[/IMGL]WHEN Elvis Presley makes a record, its a signature event, an iconic moment in the epoch of recorded music.
Before The Beatles and Rolling Stones made the girls giddy and the guys seriously consider making music a career option, Elvis ruled the 1950s and the early 60s.
His moniker King of Rock and Roll probably deserved on the account of his genre-shattering music and impossibly hypnotic body gyrations and stage antics.
In his time, Elvis bridged the rhythm and blues and blues and country, borrowed the hard-driven rockabilly and fused black music, gospel in particular, with pop ballads and the results are pop culture markers Hound Dog, Love Me Tender, Heartbreak Hotel, the likes never to be seen or heard again, unless they were poor imitations of the King.
However, as his epochal era began to diminish, overrun by younger, more social-conscious artistes in the mould of Bob Dylan, The Byrds, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Neil Young, and hipper, wilder, more gifted players the likes of Jimi Hendrix, Elvis sound drowned, barely audible over the pioneering work of the advent of rock/metal.
Elvis was barely 35 and yet nibbles are associated with him when the seminal performances of the 1960s are discussed and reminisced. Perhaps Elvis realised it, perhaps he didnt, but whatever notions he had about changing the direction of music as he once did in the 50s, the 70s was a sad dipping trajectory, right to his inevitable death, if the latest reincarnation of the Kings obscure works is any indication.
While his legacy was more than assured, this record, hyped as his bid for a serious comeback to catapult him back to the charts and perhaps the respect of his peers and critics, merely percolates with mushy renderings, almost amateurish production qualities and a strict middle-of-the-road focus. In a nutshell, recordings of pained blandness. The Ray Conniff Singers may have sounded more adventurous.
Whatever the producers felt about Elvis, they must have thought the halcyon years might help inject some pace but a listen through the first CD didnt jolt the senses nor raised an excitement.
Even his takes on Gentle On My Mind and the Beatles Hey Jude merely added to the awareness that he cant hack anymore originality. To be plain, they just sound awful. The second CD contains the hits Suspicious Minds, Kentucky Rain and In The Ghetto.
More on the downside, the sound is obsolete, even for its time. Elvis voice though is clear, strong and engaging. Had he hired George Martin, maybe he had a chance of shining through as big as before.
This is probably a screwy theory but it might explain Elvis waning years with dope and booze after the epiphany struck him that he would never be able to trailblaze new, post-rock and roll innovation in his music.
Thats why when we think of Elvis and all his wooden acting in the boy-meets-girl movies, its always the smouldering younger man that we adore and relived. But not this record, though the liner notes and pictures are worth the price of entry. Strictly for unrepented Elvis fanatics.

The author has an axe to grind.They know nothing about Elvis.
he never touched booze you *****...get your facts right you *****ic person.
It's obvious that the writer of this article isn't an Elvisfan, and that he doesn't have all facts straight. And if or if not the album sounds dull/boring/flat/uninspired and could have been better with a different producer is also merely a different in taste.
But his claim that this album wasn't really the artistic, contemporary comeback of Elvis, is true in my opinion. For us, the fans, it was a definite breakup with his soundtracks-days. And it may be his best album every since. But compared to what was being released during those days, it had little impact in sales and really had no influence at all on the musicscene. We, the fans, like to think differently because it's such a great album.
But I don't believe Elvis had any intentions to change the musics scene. He just wanted to release a really good Elvis album with more modern music that would clearly sound different from all his prior work. It was a logical followup to his comeback special.
Instead of using new material, Elvis, the King of covers, had to re-record music that was already recorded and made famous by others. By doing so he made himself less creditable as an artist in an era where it was all by 'creating art'.
Elvis was an entertainer, a performer, not a true creating artist. And not that there's anything wrong with that. Elvis made more people happy with his music than any of those so called 'creditable' artists. I dare to say that Elvis made (and still makes) more people happy than bands/artists like the Beatles. And after all, that's what counts most.

Beautiful post, Albert. I would say I agree 99%...my only issue being I do believe Elvis was a true creating artist (though certainly not all of the time) in spite of his not being a songwriter. Well said though and a nice honest analysis.
...you won't forget me when I go.
I don't like the guys tone but about Elvis not creating anything with the album imo is true.
I've always thought that Elvis should have gotten some more contemporary material from the successful songwriters of the day instead of just doing almost an entire album of old country & western songs he could've done that in Nashville.
all about the $$$$, and what was allowed to get through to him
"NO-ONE, BUT NO-ONE,IS HIS EQUAL, OR EVER WILL BE. HE WAS, AND IS SUPREME".Mick Jagger
Sounds like our little critic friend is not a fan of Elvis.... So,my little ink-wasting friend, how many times have YOU changed popular culture? How many people have YOU made happy? How many people will talk about YOU over thirty years after your death?
It`s a well-known fact of life anyway that 90% of music critics are just frustrated,failed ukelele players.
The gentleman seems sadly off the mark-and it appears to me to be intentional.
His opinion on the album, and the 69 sessions, is way off base. He has no understanding of what he is talking-American Sound was a center for contemporary Hit making music-how can that make the production values sadly lacking in 1969????
He says Elvis did not create anything new with this project............something which is very enjoyable and very in touch with the sound of Creedance, Tony Joe White, Joe South all who were making great music at the time-it does not have to be new to be great music.
This was not Elvis trying to redesign the wheel-it was Elvis getting back to the basics of his music-and pushing the wheel harder, with more fire behind the engine. It was Elvis saying -THIS IS WHO I AM-THIS IS WHAT MADE ME!
Rolling Stone top 500 Albums album 190-"From Elvis In Memphis"
"I had to leave town for a little while," Presley sings in the first track. Along with his 1968 TV special, this record announced he was back. Cut at Chips Moman's American Studios, it is little short of astounding. With help from a crack crew of Memphis musicians, Presley masterfully tackles quality material from country ("I'm Movin' On"), gospel ("Long Black Limousine"), soul ("Only the Strong Survive") and pop ("Any Day Now") as well as message songs ("In the Ghetto"). The same sessions also yielded one of Presley's greatest singles, the towering pop-soul masterpiece "Suspicious Minds."

Fantastic post Ken
It's just a case of sour grapes, they can't help pulling him down wherever possible.
IMO, the 69 sessions were the best he did. I adore his vocals, and the commitment to those sessions. He was 'smoking'...........
"NO-ONE, BUT NO-ONE,IS HIS EQUAL, OR EVER WILL BE. HE WAS, AND IS SUPREME".Mick Jagger
Also I'd say you could make an argument that Elvis was creating his only near geniune R&B album with From Elvis in Memphis.
Or blue eyed soul album like Dusty in Memphis was.
That was something new and unexplored for him.
"Windmills of Your Mind" and "In the Land of Make Believe"
So her album was a lot less R&B or soul but Elvis on the other hand chose mainly R&B, country or pop with the arrangements leaning toward R&B IMO
Also in a book about his career her producer Jerry Wexler said she recorded the finished vocals for the album in New York-because she was a little intimidated by the number of true blues and soul artists who had recorded at the studio.
Elvis on the other hand gave it his all in the studio and seemed to not have a problem with the reputation of the artists who had previously recorded there.
But I will agree that this session was as close to real R&B that Elvis ever did.
Work in Progress!
Elvis album has more of a country flavor mixed in on some of the tracks while Dusty did some show tunes as you mentioned.
Dusty's hit from those sessions Son of a Preacher man has soul feel to it sorta like Suspicious minds and in the ghetto did.
I feel that Dusty's sessions for that album were an attempt by her to sing pop tunes with a soul feel.

It is not about if the author of this article is or not and Elvis fan, its about merely ignorance of two basics for a music critic: to know about the context of the record and to distinguish between personal taste and the actual quality of the music you are talking about.
The author of this review obviously has no idea of what the AMERICAN SOUND STUDIOS and CHIPS MOMAN meant to the music scene in the second half of the 60's. His reference to George Martin just let you know he is just one of those, those how think that the 60's music scene is reducted to the British invation and the so called Woodstock generation.
He has no hint about from where this music is coming, and in which terms this album should be understood. This review is as retarded as to state Ray Charles mid 60's records are crap cause they don't sound as inovative and hip as what The Velvet Underground where doing? or to state that Hendrix was just awful noise as he does not compares to the polished sound and artistry of B.B. King? Dude! you got to put things in context.

I worked at DSA Encore full-time for more than 5 years
Pros – They have a manufacturing system that is unique in the fact that they re-manufacture other OEM equipment and re-purpose equipment that would have otherwise been scrapped. It is given new life and sold back into the market place.
Cons – The company was under capitalized and did not have enough in reserve to really grow to its potential. It was run more as a family business.
Advice to Senior Management – Get rid of the poor performers.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company

Do people in non-English-speaking countries code in English?
This is a topic in which I would like us to discuss in a little. Its a very interesting topic.
This is a question I've been wondering for a while: How do people speaking a different languages program/script?
It seems that all programming/scripting languages are written in English. Why is that? And is it possible to actually program in a different language?
Let's look at an example:
Let create a simple function in JavaScript (in English):
function alertBox(message){
But what if you'rer German, for example, and you don't know English and your life passion is to program/script? Do you have to learn English or is this possible:
funckion alarmierenBox(nachricht){
It doesn't seem that would work.
Has anyone else ever though of this? Or am I the only one?
Well, give me your thoughts below and I hope someone can give me an idea of how people speaking a different language program/script because the only thing I can think of is another program that would translate it.
Thanks for the answers. :)

By Edward D. Murphy email@example.com
Staff Writer
Both sides in the campaign that led to Maine's vote Nov. 6 to allow same-sex marriage said Friday that they are eager to see the U.S. Supreme Court weigh in on the issue.
The court said Friday that it will review two lower-court rulings on gay and lesbian marriages.
In one case, it will determine the constitutionality of the Defense of Marriage Act, which denies federal benefits such as Social Security survivor payments to same-sex spouses.
In the other, the court will review a ruling that overturned the vote in California that repealed that state's brief period of court-ordered legal same-sex marriages.
"Obviously, this is an important step in the process of making sure the relationships of loving, committed people are recognized," said David Farmer, who led Mainers United For Marriage, the largest organized group behind last month's vote to legalize gay and lesbian marriage in Maine. "This is a necessary next step."
Bob Emrich, the leader of Protect Marriage Maine, which opposed same-sex marriage, also said it was inevitable that the issue would end up before the Supreme Court. "It's not a big surprise," he said.
Emrich said the case involving the Defense of Marriage Act validates one of the opponents' arguments: that without federal recognition of same-sex marriages, it doesn't matter if Maine legalized them.
Unless the Supreme Court finds the Defense of Marriage Act unconstitutional, he said, Maine's recognition of same-sex marriage won't change much because it won't affect dozens of benefits or force other states to recognize Maine marriages of same-sex couples.
The second case could have an impact if the court rules that voters in California shouldn't have been allowed to take away a right that had been extended by the courts.
"I can't imagine how they can overturn the vote of the people in California," Emrich said. "I'm hopeful they will uphold the vote in California, reinforcing the people's rights as we understand them."
A ruling that restricts the ability of voters to override same-sex marriage laws could scuttle a possible effort to mount another vote in Maine, Emrich said.
Farmer said he hopes that the Supreme Court will overturn the Defense of Marriage Act and find that it "oversteps federal bounds" by interfering with the states' role in setting marriage laws.
He said such a ruling would leave same-sex marriages intact where they exist, without forcing other states to allow them.
"This is an important step and a major step," Farmer said of the court's decision to take up the issue.

The question they consider concerns overall economic opportunity, as applied to their intended occupation and the extent to which access to opportunity varies by gender.
Gender, Martial Status, and Earnings
Berk (1985) proposed that the family is a "gender factory"; that is, families are social institutions in which ideas about gender are formed, enforced, and reproduced across generations. This exercise examines the relationships between marital status and earnings among women aged 25 and over, using data from the 1990 U.S. Census. We will attempt to answer the following question: Does marital status influence earnings among women?
Women and Household Structure
While you do the exercises in this lesson, you will find data that look at some of these claims. In the next lesson, we will explore some of the demographic "causes" of the increase in the status of women-declines in both mortality and fertility and an increase in urbanization.
Race and Ethnic Inequality
This activity provides a look at race and ethnicity inequality in the United States over time.
Marriage and Divorce
This activity provides a look at marriage and divorce among different race/ethnicity, ages, education and income levels over time.
Women's Education
This activity provides a look at women's education and the gender gap in education over time.
Education and Earnings: Does Education Pay?
Overall, we see that even when controlling for occupation, gender continues to affect earnings: women make less than men. In this exercises, students will examine the influence of education on earnings. Do higher levels of education lead to higher earnings?
Investigating the Effects of Race and Gender on Earnings in the United States
Does income differ for men and women, and for whites and people of color? In this exercise, we will examine earnings data for all full-time workers in the US. Students will be able to examine data for the nation as a whole, for Kentucky, and for a state of their choosing.
Gender, Occupation and Earnings
Overall, we see that even when controlling for occupation, gender continues to affect earnings: women make less than men. Regardless of occupation, we find that a higher proportion of women than men fall into the low-income categories. Likewise, a higher proportion of men than women fall into the high-income categories. Students will explore these ideas by analyzing the effects of gender, occupation and education on earnings.

I read the book recently.. and it says you should eat meat sized of your clenched fist, and carbs the size of your open palm. correct me if im wrong
Could i get a better clarifcation on this? as in roughly how many grams or any other weight of meat's and carbs should that be on average
That is actually a good way of doing it. It usually turns out to be like 4-6 oz of meat and 3/4-1 cup of carbs. But everybody is different. If after a week your progression is stalling then lower the portion sizes but don't cut back too much too soon or risk stalling your metabolism
Meat = open palm
Carb = closed fist
Fat = thumb tip (1st knuckle to tip)
Matty89 is correct on the avg grams - I have tracked portion control with actual scale measurements and it came out perfectly to what my calorie needs were.

- Save and restore the codec state when re-decoding We previously had an ugly hack to check for a BOM when re-decoding some binary data in flushCharBuffer. The hack was there essentially because codecs like UTF-16 have a state, and we had not restored it. This patch gives codecs an explicit state, and implemented saving/restoring of the state as necessary. Hence, the hack in flushCharBuffer is replaced by a more general mechanism that works for any codec with state. Unfortunately, iconv doesn't give us a way to save and restore the state, so this is currently only implemented for the built-in codecs.

- Redefine gcdInt to use gcdInteger rather than gcdInt# primop The gcdInt# primop uses gmp internally, even though the interface is just Int#. Since we want to get gmp out of the rts we cannot keep gcdInt#, however it's also a bit odd for the integer package to export something that doesn't actually use Integer in its interface. Using gcdInteger is still not terribly satisfactory aesthetically. However in the short-term it works and it is no slower since gcdInteger calls gcdInt# for the special case of two small Integers.

- Rewrite of the IO library, including Unicode support Highlights: * Unicode support for Handle I/O: ** Automatic encoding and decoding using a per-Handle encoding. ** The encoding defaults to the locale encoding (only on Unix so far, perhaps Windows later). ** Built-in UTF-8, UTF-16 (BE/LE), and UTF-32 (BE/LE) codecs. ** iconv-based codec for other encodings on Unix * Modularity: the low-level IO interface is exposed as a type class (GHC.IO.IODevice) so you can build your own low-level IO providers and make Handles from them. * Newline translation: instead of being Windows-specific wired-in magic, the translation from \r\n -> \n and back again is available on all platforms and is configurable for reading/writing independently. Unicode-aware Handles ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is a significant restructuring of the Handle implementation with the primary goal of supporting Unicode character encodings. The only change to the existing behaviour is that by default, text IO is done in the prevailing locale encoding of the system (except on Windows [1]). Handles created by openBinaryFile use the Latin-1 encoding, as do Handles placed in binary mode using hSetBinaryMode. We provide a way to change the encoding for an existing Handle: GHC.IO.Handle.hSetEncoding :: Handle -> TextEncoding -> IO () and various encodings (from GHC.IO.Encoding): latin1, utf8, utf16, utf16le, utf16be, utf32, utf32le, utf32be, localeEncoding, and a way to lookup other encodings: GHC.IO.Encoding.mkTextEncoding :: String -> IO TextEncoding (it's system-dependent whether the requested encoding will be available). We may want to export these from somewhere more permanent; that's a topic for a future library proposal. Thanks to suggestions from Duncan Coutts, it's possible to call hSetEncoding even on buffered read Handles, and the right thing happens. So we can read from text streams that include multiple encodings, such as an HTTP response or email message, without having to turn buffering off (though there is a penalty for switching encodings on a buffered Handle, as the IO system has to do some re-decoding to figure out where it should start reading from again). If there is a decoding error, it is reported when an attempt is made to read the offending character from the Handle, as you would expect. Performance varies. For "hGetContents >>= putStr" I found the new library was faster on my x86_64 machine, but slower on an x86. On the whole I'd expect things to be a bit slower due to the extra decoding/encoding, but probabaly not noticeably. If performance is critical for your app, then you should be using bytestring and text anyway. [1] Note: locale encoding is not currently implemented on Windows due to the built-in Win32 APIs for encoding/decoding not being sufficient for our purposes. Ask me for details. Offers of help gratefully accepted. Newline Translation ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In the old IO library, text-mode Handles on Windows had automatic translation from \r\n -> \n on input, and the opposite on output. It was implemented using the underlying CRT functions, which meant that there were certain odd restrictions, such as read/write text handles needing to be unbuffered, and seeking not working at all on text Handles. In the rewrite, newline translation is now implemented in the upper layers, as it needs to be since we have to perform Unicode decoding before newline translation. This means that it is now available on all platforms, which can be quite handy for writing portable code. For now, I have left the behaviour as it was, namely \r\n -> \n on Windows, and no translation on Unix. However, another reasonable default (similar to what Python does) would be to do \r\n -> \n on input, and convert to the platform-native representation (either \r\n or \n) on output. This is called universalNewlineMode (below). The API is as follows. (available from GHC.IO.Handle for now, again this is something we will probably want to try to get into System.IO at some point): -- | The representation of a newline in the external file or stream. data Newline = LF -- ^ "\n" | CRLF -- ^ "\r\n" deriving Eq -- | Specifies the translation, if any, of newline characters between -- internal Strings and the external file or stream. Haskell Strings -- are assumed to represent newlines with the '\n' character; the -- newline mode specifies how to translate '\n' on output, and what to -- translate into '\n' on input. data NewlineMode = NewlineMode { inputNL :: Newline, -- ^ the representation of newlines on input outputNL :: Newline -- ^ the representation of newlines on output } deriving Eq -- | The native newline representation for the current platform nativeNewline :: Newline -- | Map "\r\n" into "\n" on input, and "\n" to the native newline -- represetnation on output. This mode can be used on any platform, and -- works with text files using any newline convention. The downside is -- that @readFile a >>= writeFile b@ might yield a different file. universalNewlineMode :: NewlineMode universalNewlineMode = NewlineMode { inputNL = CRLF, outputNL = nativeNewline } -- | Use the native newline representation on both input and output nativeNewlineMode :: NewlineMode nativeNewlineMode = NewlineMode { inputNL = nativeNewline, outputNL = nativeNewline } -- | Do no newline translation at all. noNewlineTranslation :: NewlineMode noNewlineTranslation = NewlineMode { inputNL = LF, outputNL = LF } -- | Change the newline translation mode on the Handle. hSetNewlineMode :: Handle -> NewlineMode -> IO () IO Devices ~~~~~~~~~~ The major change here is that the implementation of the Handle operations is separated from the underlying IO device, using type classes. File descriptors are just one IO provider; I have also implemented memory-mapped files (good for random-access read/write) and a Handle that pipes output to a Chan (useful for testing code that writes to a Handle). New kinds of Handle can be implemented outside the base package, for instance someone could write bytestringToHandle. A Handle is made using mkFileHandle: -- | makes a new 'Handle' mkFileHandle :: (IODevice dev, BufferedIO dev, Typeable dev) => dev -- ^ the underlying IO device, which must support -- 'IODevice', 'BufferedIO' and 'Typeable' -> FilePath -- ^ a string describing the 'Handle', e.g. the file -- path for a file. Used in error messages. -> IOMode -- ^ The mode in which the 'Handle' is to be used -> Maybe TextEncoding -- ^ text encoding to use, if any -> NewlineMode -- ^ newline translation mode -> IO Handle This also means that someone can write a completely new IO implementation on Windows based on native Win32 HANDLEs, and distribute it as a separate package (I really hope somebody does this!). This restructuring isn't as radical as previous designs. I haven't made any attempt to make a separate binary I/O layer, for example (although hGetBuf/hPutBuf do bypass the text encoding and newline translation). The main goal here was to get Unicode support in, and to allow others to experiment with making new kinds of Handle. We could split up the layers further later. API changes and Module structure ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ NB. GHC.IOBase and GHC.Handle are now DEPRECATED (they are still present, but are just re-exporting things from other modules now). For 6.12 we'll want to bump base to version 5 and add a base4-compat. For now I'm using #if __GLASGOW_HASKEL__ >= 611 to avoid deprecated warnings. I split modules into smaller parts in many places. For example, we now have GHC.IORef, GHC.MVar and GHC.IOArray containing the implementations of IORef, MVar and IOArray respectively. This was necessary for untangling dependencies, but it also makes things easier to follow. The new module structurue for the IO-relatied parts of the base package is: GHC.IO Implementation of the IO monad; unsafe*; throw/catch GHC.IO.IOMode The IOMode type GHC.IO.Buffer Buffers and operations on them GHC.IO.Device The IODevice and RawIO classes. GHC.IO.BufferedIO The BufferedIO class. GHC.IO.FD The FD type, with instances of IODevice, RawIO and BufferedIO. GHC.IO.Exception IO-related Exceptions GHC.IO.Encoding The TextEncoding type; built-in TextEncodings; mkTextEncoding GHC.IO.Encoding.Types GHC.IO.Encoding.Iconv GHC.IO.Encoding.Latin1 GHC.IO.Encoding.UTF8 GHC.IO.Encoding.UTF16 GHC.IO.Encoding.UTF32 Implementation internals for GHC.IO.Encoding GHC.IO.Handle The main API for GHC's Handle implementation, provides all the Handle operations + mkFileHandle + hSetEncoding. GHC.IO.Handle.Types GHC.IO.Handle.Internals GHC.IO.Handle.Text Implementation of Handles and operations. GHC.IO.Handle.FD Parts of the Handle API implemented by file-descriptors: openFile, stdin, stdout, stderr, fdToHandle etc.

Miley Cyrus Concert Tickets
As the daughter of famed country singer Bill Ray Cyrus, Miley broke into the family music business with her pop-infused vocals and catchy instrumentals. Her first TV role was "Kylie" on the show "Doc" which starred her Dad as a Montana doctor who moves to the Big Apple. In just a few short years Miley managed to rocket herself to superstar status with her split-life role as Hannah Montana on the Hannah Montana show.
Having played with super-cute boy group "The Jonas Brothers" and even created her own YouTube show with best friend Mandy, Miley became America's sweetheart overnight! In addition to her concerts, Cyrus designed her very own clothing line with Max Azria. So when you see her at the show, you may see some designer duds crafted by Miley herself!
With the end of Hannah Montana, Cyrus sought to shake off her youthful appearance and did so in spectacularly controversial fashion. Shocking performances at the MTV Video Music Awards and the MTV Europe Music Awards not only thrust her into the spotlight but also propelled her debut album as Miley Cyrus, the "dirty south hip-hop" record Bangerz, all the way to number one on the Billboard Top 200 Album Chart. Now, lucky for you, she can't stop, and somewhere in America, Miley Cyrus is still twerking on tour dates near you!
